I’ve been struggling with anxiety all my life since I turned 13 I’m 23 now. I’ve missed good opportunities because of it. I don’t know how or when I will ever get better.. I try and manifest confidence. But it doesn’t work in the end. I just have this constant feeling or worry all the time. It never goes away. It’s getting bad because I don’t have a job and I recently quit my job in feb 2023 due to stress. It’s been hard finding work. I get calls for interviews but I don’t answer I’m scared to answer. I’m scared to leave the house I feel like I will get laughed at, but also I know that nobody will do that. And my city is known for stabbings and kidnapping. And as a young indigenous women i feel like I’m one of the vulnerable. Life just feels like a really scary movie and I’m the main character. I’m scared of it. Because I don’t know what’s gonna happen next. Who’s gonna pop out of no where and grab me or shank me. It’s just so hard I feel like a small puppy crying and everyone is a big dog over me while I’m in the corner. I have my high school diploma and I’ve had 3 jobs in the past since I turned 18. So I’m not technically lazy..I’m just so tired and confused
